What are the best mountain bike areas in Oregon?

There are SO many places in Oregon to mountain bike, but I’ll try to narrow them down to the BEST. Are you ready?

Top 5 recommendations:

McKenzie River Trail

Oakridge — Alpine Trail

Sandy Ridge Trail

Surveyors Ridge

Tiddlywinks

Honorable Mentions:

Oakridge — Tire Mountain or Waldo Lake

Tyler’s Traverse

North Umpqua Trail

Black Rock

Post Canyon

Google any of these and your mind might explode. There are just so many awesome places to go. In fact, if you haven’t been to Oakridge, I just went and it blew my mind. There are mountain bike trails, waterfalls, hot springs, and a proper English pub called the Local 180.

Let me know if you have any questions or need to find a place to rent a mountain bike. The Mountain Shop in NE Portland is probably your best bet for a quality ride.
